2006 Ford Crown Victoria Crankshaft Position Sensor Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to Service the Crankshaft Position Sensor on 2006 Ford Crown Victoria?

  A: The service of the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor requires the vehicle to sit in neutral position while on a hoist. The battery ground cable gets disconnected to enable the tensioner rotation which allows belt removal from the A/C compressor pulley. The second step involves disconnecting two electrical components: the field coil connector of the A/C compressor and the CKP sensor electrical connector. First detach the wiring harness clips before removing the nut but refit these connectors with a torque of 9 Nm (80 lb-in). Redefining the A/C compressor bolts is unnecessary for accessing the CKP sensor when the compressor needs to travel down one inch during installation and requires 25 Nm (18 lb-ft) torque when tightening the bolts. First remove the CKP sensor bolt before taking out the sensor and tighten it again to 10 Nm (89 lb-in) at reassembly. A vehicle with a fire suppression system requires repowering after the round of installation through reversing the removal steps.
